AOC Gigondas
MAGNUM

Presse/ Kritik
Vinous: 94-95 / 100 Punkte
"Dark shimmering red. Highly expressive red berry and cherry preserve aromas are complemented by suggestions of _ garrigue_, smoked meat and candied flowers. Sappy and penetrating on the palate, offering primary black raspberry, bitter cherry and spicecake flavors that show superb depth and focus. Gently gripping tannins build slowly on the impressively long, energetic finish, which leaves behind intense floral and red berry notes."
J. Livingstone-Learmonth: 3,5 / 6 Sterne
"Sturdy dark red; the nose has a brothy, cooked black fruits aroma, notes of prune, a Southern couch of firmness, a sense of basil. The palate has a red fruit, plum Grenache content with noticeable, rather thick tannins. There is plenty of heart in it. From 2023, needs time. This isn’t the freshest sample, but gives an idea, so it’s rated at a basic entry level, could go higher. 2039-41"

"The 2018 Gigondas should slot in behind the 2017 yet should still be a beautiful, outstanding wine. Black currants, cassis, sappy green herbs, bouquet garni, and ground pepper notes all emerge from this medium-bodied, silky, ultra-fine, and polished 2018. It shows the vintages more forward, supple style and should drink nicely right out of the gate."
